Have you ever wondered why prices are rising on everyday items like food, cars, and household appliances? It could be due to tariffs! In this video, I break down how tariffs really work, who actually pays them, and why they might not be helping Americans as much as you think. As a business owner who imports goods, I’ve experienced firsthand the impact tariffs have on prices and consumers.

Learn how tariffs affect the U.S. economy, increase prices, and sometimes cost more jobs than they save. I’ll also show you how to tackle common misconceptions about tariffs and explain them clearly when you hear people talking about them.
